I'm not saying it'll happen. I'm saying it wouldn't surprise me if he did it

it wouldn't surprise you?

 

 

really?

 

 

seriously?

They're already talking about Bumgarner going Saturday on three days rest, and then presumably going game 5 too, which means they'd probably throw Cueto in game 4 on short rest. If that's what you think you have to resort to in order to have a chance, well...good luck.

 

High of 70 on Friday and high of 68 on Saturday. Dong them into oblivion the first two games while the defense shuts down their feeble attempts at offense, and Jake will take advantage of whatever they call Safe-Co now and shut them down in game three to end this even year [expletive] and reignite God mode.

To be pedantic, Safeco is Seattle's park and has never been the name of SF's.

Bochy will ride the horsefeathers out of Bumgarner and probably Cueto too. I really wouldn't be surprised at all if those were the only 2 guys to get starts

You wouldn't be surprised if a starting pitcher started three games in six days?

After what he did in the WS, nothing surprises me about MadBum

Will he eat our children too? Or is that Hunter

The Blue Jays will have played three playoff games before we even play one. That's kinda funny.

I think that happens every year though. I think Houston played 3 before the Cardinals played 1 last year.

Math really is hard. Started yesterday (day 1), maybe start Saturday on 2 days rest (days 2-4), then start on regular rest in game 5 (days 5-9).

Then Cueto starts games 1, 3, and 4?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Nobody thinks they're only going to use 2 starters, you goobers.

Considering more than one option really is hard.

 

In the silly scenario that a pitcher starts three of the five games, obviously that guy would be the one who starts games 1, 3 and 5. Thus - Friday, Monday and Thursday. Which, again, is three games in six days.
